Sweet Cherry Blossom Makeup Inspired by Darling Girl Cosmetics

Hey everyone! Today I have more of an understated look to share on here. It's a sweet pink and purple look that kind of reminds me of a romantic spring day when the cherry blossoms are in bloom. Kind of a weird time to be thinking about Cherry Blossoms and perhaps this looks would work better on Valentine's day than in the middle of Fall, but I was playing around with my Darling Girl Cosmetics shadows and this is what I came up with. I love how soft and feminine it is! 

Since the colors I used have a colored sheen to them, they're even more stunning in real life. They appear somewhat muted when photographed. Since the colors are hard to photograph, I'll add links to the colors that I used so that you can check out good swatches of them on the DGC website. Their swatches really show the iridescence and color shifts of the shades.

Stila All Over Shimmer Duo in Kitten Review and Swatches

Texture & Application : These highlighters are smooth and buttery. The powder is fine and soft, but not so soft that a lot will become loose when you dip your brush in (if you swipe it too hard it will though). To apply this, I like using the Real Techniques contour brush when I want a noticeable highlight. If I want something more subtle, I'll use a fan brush instead. Both powders are very pigmented, meaning that they are very noticeable on the skin even when applied lightly and both apply very evenly.

Finish : Both highlighter have beautiful sheen to them without being overly glittery. Depending on which color you apply, you will get a glowy golden highlight or a more subtle and fair-skin friendly light pink highlight.  Personally, on a day to day basis, unless I'm going for a specific look, I like a little bit of both so I mix the two before I apply.

Swatches

On the Cheeks

Left Pinky Shade applied by itself

Right Bronzey shade applied by itself

Both shades applied together

Packaging : The packaging is super cute. It's a small peach colored plastic compact with little stars on it. It's quite light so it's easy to transport. It also seems to be quite durable and it closes securely. It has small mirror inside which could be handy, but it's pretty small so I'm not sure I would use it unless I had nothing else on hand. I'm surprised by how nice this packaging is because the only other Stila product that I own is the In The Lights Palette (which I love by the way) and the cardboard packaging is terrible. It's super messy and dirty now and you can even see the plastic layer on it starting to unglue in some places.

Price : 29$ at Canadian Sephora. You can get it on Amazon.com for 14.92$ (score!)

Overall : I like that this highlighter has both shades in it, making it very versatile. You could probably accommodate most looks with these two colors. It works wonderfully with my fair skin and the quality is outstanding in my opinion. I'm very happy with this purchase, especially since I only paid 15$ for it. I'm not sure I would be willing to shell out the 29$ Sephora is charging to get it though, so if you can get a good deal on it I definitely recommend, otherwise, I'm sure other cheaper alternatives exist that would be relatively similar to this. I give it a 8/10 because of the price.

Recent Favorite Lip Combo : Revlon + NYX

Hey all! Recently, I've been obsessed with a new lip combo. I think these two products look fantastic together and are great for everyday wear, so I thought I would share it with you all!

I've been wearing Revlon Just Bitten Kissable Lip Stain in Honey with NYX Mega Shine Lip Gloss in Natural over top. 

I just love how it looks! Natural and a little glossy. Super comfortable on the lips! What do you think, would you wear this combo? Let me know in the comments!

Favorite Nail polish shades for summer

Hey all :) Today I wanted to share my favorite polish shades for summer with you guys! These are polishes I've been wearing non stop since the weather has been nice out here in Quebec City. They're perfect for spring and summer in my opinion.

As you can see, I'm mostly into blues/turquoises and pinks/corals this summer :) I'd love to find a nice pastel yellow though, let me know in the comments if you have any recommendations!

First up is Tender Teal by Sally Hansen. It's a beautiful teal glittery nail polish. It requires at least two coats to be opaque. In the bottle, it has a pretty purple shift, but it's doesn't show up on the nails.

Next, we have Turquoise Moonlight from Quo by Orly. It's a eye-catching turquoise glitter. Very easy to apply, opaque in one single coat. Sorry about the pinky sticking out, I don't know what's up with that :P ahah

Finally, the last polish in the blues family is Pacific Blue by Sally Hansen. It's a beautiful medium blue with a creme finish. Also opaque in one coat. The brush is very thick making it quick and easy to apply. 

Tender Teal, Turquoise Moonlight, Pacific Blue

For the pink/coral family we have three Revlon polishes : Strawberry Electric, Electric Pink and Make Mine Mango. Strawberry Electric is a shimmery hot pink color with a slight blue tinge. Electric pink is more of a slightly pink coral color with a creme finish. Finally, Make mine Mango is a true coral color, also with a creme finish. All of these are opaque in two coats.

 Lastly, we have Timbleberry by Sinful colors which I would describe as a neon coral color. It's opaque in one coat. It's probably my favorite toe nail color for the summer time. I imagine it would look great with a tan (I can't say for sure because I don't tan very much :P)

 Make Mine Mango, Electric Pink, Strawberry Electric, Timbleberry
